In my opinion, the worst clans based on server rules and players:

1. Wolfpack Clan
2. Few Good Mates
3. Pups

And the best:

1. rV
2. ArK
3. ak-101
4. Eat Me

worst is pretty much all of the team-servers, bar the competitive ones, as they usually dont have moronic rules, though some of the other clans server are passable.

I'm not going to name anyone, I don't mind rules but it's annoying to jump on a team server and see those clan members not switching teams when the teams are clearly not balanced. I don't mind clannies playing together but when it's your own server I think there's a little onus to make it competitive and therefore enjoyable. I'm usually first to switch to a bad team but not being a fantastic player it doesn't do much...

*It's all subjective but at the end of the day it's their servers and they can do what they want.

i lol,d.

Wolfpack clan run a no sniper server, and Dalek only plays sniper. umad.

Verymad

Some of the servers certainly have some bizzare rules.

Shotgun only server would be fun.

First rule of a pub hero, you never play on clan servers.

ive seen some bad ones i rly dislike ak101 i use to play with nh back in bf2 but they are bc2 noobs and i hate Wolfpack i cept owning them then called them noobs

what is wrong with puppies server?

Those are the biggest bunch of sore losers on the planet. Every time I join I get kicked because their members can't hack me killing them...

Ah I do remember they like to kick you.
Last time i saw you on the server you rq though.

thats y i onley play ga servers to avoid clan **** heads

yeh i agree with you there Dalek

I've never actually raged quited from any BC2 game, I was actually invited to play N:TW.

i onley quit for sleep or hon or macgyver

the EatMe server and GameArea server are full most days for peoples knowledge.

EatMe, AK101 and Google are some of the best servers out there. ARK is good too, but I think it's a small server and it doesn't stay populated enough (disappoint). For pubbin' I like the 3FL servers. Gamearena servers are a stupid pile of lag.

Ah so when you said "**** this," you actually meant "**** this. OOOH N:TW." =P

yep

ga dosent lagg noobs ive played 90% of my games on it

GA servers lagg like hell. It isn't only me. A few nights ago three of us joined (were talking on vent), we all got all types of rubberbanding, we raged then quited.

I have found a community server with basically no rules, and no lag. But IMO places like GA are best, cause you dont have to put up with getting kicked for playing the game as it was created.

I am currently on a Bigpond connection, and the lure of unmetered content is not strong enough to overcome the fail lag.

Clan servers are where the lag is not!!

In terms of what people want on a good clan server, what are suggestions?

What modes and maps do people want? I can reconfig Revolt server to whatever community wants! No rules, just Battlefield!

but they dont lagg for me

all of those are ****, everyone is ****

OMG

My pet hate is clan servers that use the yell chat instead of the say chat.
big bold writting every 2 seconds is rather irritating..

i find all the server mods like ranks annoying and to be welcomed to the server

The only problem with most of the clan servers are the noob admins that kick people because they are having a good round (kdr). You know who you are. Easy solution, don't go there.

well said zulu

Dalek! What was that clan that had a rage at us for using Red Dot on our Snipers and we both got kicked because of it after they got raped by long range red dot headshots.
And then those random clanners that claimed a pub server as their own for "Training" and told you to leave and go join another server.

BTW ToG is full of lamers who muck around just to **** others off, last night myself and Dalek were playing a few rounds and then these ToG clanners came on and Gustarded everyone then the next round they were shooting each other with their weapons and blowing team vehicles up so that we would lose... which we did. *Insert Rage face here*
I used to respect ToG clanners in 2142 but now they are just complete pricks!

AK-101 are laid back which I like and they have a firm belief that a game should be played how the developer created it no matter what for instance... Base raping! sure most clans kick or ban for doing it but it's stupid, if a game lets you do it then you have the entitlement to rape a base (if they rage it's their fault for not getting themselves out of a base rape in the first place due to lack of skills and teamwork EXACTLY how BC2 is supposed to be utilized in-game) if DICE allows it then it's allowed... no questions asked. The only thing is that you get shamed for doing it same thing like Gustarding which is fair enough to me!

pretty sure dice made it so you can blow up friendly vehicles too, dumbass.

also dice made the gustav.

just like they made base raping.

...and just as I said it is shamed apon, it all shouldn't mean a kick of ban!

ToG did most of that as I mentioned before so I believe they are a part of the worst clans of not keeping their mature nature (which is what they attempt to look for originally).

don't let the door catch you on the way out

base raping is your reward for winning a round and capping all the points

If you're getting based raped, its your fault because you obviously didn't CAP quick enough.

so you deserve it

nuff said

who agrees with me and dalek

Maybe you need to discuss base raping in another topic or thread!

i thought the post was about - name and shame servers? good or bad. it seems some who post are more concerned about little tifs they have had in some servers.

GA servers in my opinion are laggy,

Clan servers are usually low ping but come with an array of different rules or die hard got to win clan players.

Hypernia seem to be not so laggy in my opinion.

the eatme and gameArea servers have been really busy and have fast respawn on vehicles may have something to do with population there.

Not all servers are bad those mentioned good on here i agree. But for most gamers a thought might be to go into a server open minded with a good game ethic and being considerate and polite will put you in good stead with other players.

Dont be scared to jion a clan they can be fun, just shop around to see witch one suits you or start your own.

I totally agree there Dalek & Bieltanman you fail to cap a base and get forced back to your main,then TOUGH TITTIES .

What alot of servers are kicking for now is MAIN RAPE from the start of the round ,when some lamer either drives(usually in a tank) or choppers to an enemy main right at the start and flat out rapes .
To me that shows as much skill as picking your nose .

Oh , to get back on topic


Pretty much have to agree with Dalek there



Got the same views on them Vile ,they where a very respected clan in most ladders and games ,something has happened to them now though and it seems their leadership has gone
to the pack .



2 Out of 3 isnt bad there Sad ,they didnt make Base Raping ,thats something kiddies do at the start of a round to make them selves look bigger and L33t

Players and Server Admins in general have no idea what the Terms and Conditions of use are for this or any game they play.
We just play and administrate how "we" think things should go.

Below are a few of the rules or conditions under which you play and Admins operate their servers.
These are ranked servers only though, so unranked servers its a free for all.
Remember that you agreed to the EA Online Terms and Conditions when you made your EA Account.
So you have all agreed to abide by these.

Player Conduct

Examples of player conduct not permitted:

* offensive soldier names or clan tags.
* actively encourage other players to violate the EA Online Terms and Conditions.
* any racist, sexist, anti-religious, anti-ethnic, anti-gay, or other hate-mongering philosophy.
* interfere with, hack into, or decipher any data streams or transmissions to or from EA or partner services.
* use any application or software while using the Battlefield services which are not approved by EA or partner.
* exploit any bug or abuse any game system.
* intentionally use or share any bug found within any Battlefield games, real or fictitious, regardles of whether it gives an advantage or not.
* directly or indirectly communicate the existence of any such bug to any other user.

Examples of abuse include, but are not limited to:

* Playing on restricted kit servers (knife, shock, and pistol only)
* Any form of stat padding, turns killing, reviving, receiving ammo, vehicle damage repair, etc.
* Abusing world geometry to your advantage without risk
* Creating a play environment which, by definition or action, creates an inflated scoring scenario


Ranked Server Administrators

Examples of rules that violate the EA Online Terms and Conditions:

* Preventing players from using certain vehicles such as ATV's, helicopters, or armored vehicles
* Running knife / specific weapon / pistol-only servers
* Preventing players from using all game assets (mortar strike, vehicles, UAV or motion sensors). If using the Infantry-only server-side option, this should be clearly stated in the game's loading screen
* Preventing players from using certain weapons or items or enforcing a "pistol only" or "knife only" server rule.

However, Server Administrators may implement and enforce rules that result in minor changes to gameplay behavior or styles as long as these are clearly stated before a player starts playing on a server.
These rules typically introduce minor or limited restrictions on how a certain aspect of the game can be used, but do not create or promote an environment that would allow abuse of the scoring/award system.

Examples of rules that are acceptable:

* Limiting movement of combat assets, such as Aircraft and Vehicles during game play.
* Disallowing repeated main base camping/attacking of bases that cannot be captured. In some cases, however, attacking the base with reasonable intent to take out assets (artillery, M-Com points) is acceptable.
* Limiting the use of mortar strikes or in-game assets to a particular region of the map.
* Server Administrators will also violate the EA Online Terms and Conditions if they:
(i) use offensive server names, server art or clan tags; or
(ii) encourage other players to violate the EA Online Terms and Conditions while in game.

So there you have it.
The rules under which you play and administrators admin their ranked servers.
Will it make any difference...no.
But if players or admins feel the T&C's have been breached then you all have the right to complain to EA/DICE and present your case to them.

hello

From the T&C, it would be pretty clear why no weapon restrictions have been built into the game. The RCON programs do a really poor job of restricting weapsons, (eg. die after you have killed someone with a rectricted weapon).

No sniper rifle servers, are fun, but crazy IMO. Sif snipers are not part of the game.

lol i was on the wolfpack gamearena server and som snipers got kicked does that mean there breaking the rules

Examples of rules that are acceptable:

* Limiting movement of combat assets, such as Aircraft and Vehicles during game play.
* Disallowing repeated main base camping/attacking of bases that cannot be captured. In some cases, however, attacking the base with reasonable intent to take out assets (artillery, M-Com points) is acceptable.
* Limiting the use of mortar strikes or in-game assets to a particular region of the map.
* Server Administrators will also violate the EA Online Terms and Conditions if they:
(i) use offensive server names, server art or clan tags; or
(ii) encourage other players to violate the EA Online Terms and Conditions while in game.

there you go.... so servers that have this rule are within their rights to kick nubs that indulge in lame tactics to feel L337. deal with it! Pr0's can STFU about how "its in the game", "if it happens you deserve it". How about a name and shame of campers, padders, tards to help clan servers keep the low-lifes out?

WE ONLEY CAMP THE UN CAPS CUS WE WOULD HAVE ALL THE POINTS ON THE MAP RETARD

Well if your that good show some skill by holding the points and not shooting spawning players.. Oh and umm your capslock was on, you know, just incase you didn't realise.

You are?

am i good? in your view.. bahaha hell no, but in rush i'm always pushing the mcoms, in conquest i'm always pushing the flags. throw ammo and med packs. give team mates the heads up if armor is available in the main, you know teamwork. i NEVER hang back, never camp, too boring ( i tend to push too much and yeah kdr suffers but its too much fun not to push )

i played the wolfpack server tonight and had fun, the was no tards and we had a couple of good games even neg. was there and yeah i saw him tank camping and stuff and took the **** ( as you do ) but when it had to be done, i gotta say, he pushed and i thought "wow, maybe i was wrong and this dude is an ok guy".

play it hard and fair and admins can get their game on too, instead of them having to deal with tards all night

So? I get MCOMS when I don't snipe, I'm always pushing for flags in Conquest, I always throw medpacks, ammo, spot, throw motion mines, ect...

When people accuse me of not being a team player by "sniping" they don't often realize that they'd die a lot more if I wasn't sniping the guys off the MG's or the AA Guns or the AT Rocket launchers. They don't realize that I'm the one defending the MCOM by sniping people who disarm it, or defending the player so he can arm it. But then all that is ruined when you get every man with his dog trying to snipe not doing anything beneficial. They just sit there thinking that they're top ****.

Again, camping their base AFTER all flags are capped is perfectly legit, considering they just sit there in their base waiting for helicopters is enough to go in there.
